Breakaway by Arabian Oud {R}



Tied in traditions and promises,
Of sincerity & long waited nights,
Holding back till I could resist,
Letting the soul bleed for long,
But not anymore,
Pinned down as a copy,
I am not your average girl,
I broke the cage and ran free,
Voices calling me selfish, this and that,
But none knew the real me,
Your disheartened coz you lost,
You thought you got me,
Holding me,
Sands slipped away when palms opened,
I am free spirited yet so calm,
These noises have surpassed my tolerance,
Break away, voices chanting now,
No, I don’t need to tell you again,
Because it ain’t worth it no more,
I know those words coming from you,
Promising not to make the same mistake,
But the next morning, it will be the same story,
I cared enough for your existence,
To hold you close to me for long,
Never let you walk off like that,
But you got it all wrong again,
Overlooking my existence here,
So I am running away silently,
As you sleep and dream brightly,
I am shattering your dreams apart,
Breaking our promises and dreams,
Every hope & desire crumbled,
I gave myself patience for you,
But you had no time for me,
Being heartless & breaking your heart,
Vanishing in the midst of night today,
Little do I doubt you will find me,
For,
You never searched when I was there,
In your life.
Left behind in this closet called ' house',
Are my memories and moments.

حامل الهوى تعب. أبو نواس. ( The One Burdened With Passion Is Weary. Abu Nuwas [d. 814 AD]) on Arabian Oud {R}

حامل الهوى تعب ـــ يستخفه الطرب If he cries, it is right for him [to do so] - what he has is no game. إن بكى يحق له ـــ ليس ما به لعب Whenever one cause [of pain] comes to an end - from you, [another] cause returns to me. كلما انقضى سبب ـــ منك عاد لي سبب You laugh obliviously - as the lover weeps. تضحكين لاهية ـــ والمحب ينتحب You marvel at my sickness - my health is the marvel. تعجبين من سقمي ـــ صحتي هي العجب

Whenever you are with me... by Arabian Oud {R}

Whenever you are with me, No matter how hard life gets, I always have you to make me feel loved, You whisper in my ears, Words of encouragement, Everytime I fall, Your love holds me back, Look at this home, We built with so much love and hard work, Where did you disappear one day? And leave me all alone in a place we called 'home' You left me in an endless darkness, With no hope, with tears, with regrets, Was our love so weak? That it couldn't stand the storm? That it couldn't stand these hard tests? Was our love so fake? That instead of holding each other, We run away from each other, And act as if we no longer care, And act as if we are deaf to each other's voice, Act as if we can live without each other, Whenever you are with me, In my thoughts, my loneliness disappears, You are my other half, that completes me, Come back and complete our story, Make this house a home again, Fill it with life and happiness, The love our souls dream for, The love we prayed for..

Unbeliever in love - June 2006 poem

I was once a believer in love, but now I am an unbeliever in love, I was so deeply smitten by his smile, but now I wonder what drove me to him? I thought love meant eternal BLISS, but then I realised it was plain HELL, Prancing around the trees like a child, I seemed to lose my innocence in love, Love, you followed my shadow everywhere, And then you entered my blood and then my soul, You crept into my alley in the dark night, Then stole my sleep and hypnotised me, I thought it was so special, 'true love' But it was nothing but a gud 'Time pass' for you, Driving me to insanity and sleepless nights, Then stealing away my dreams and peace, You vanish in the midst of the night, I thought you understood me, you was special, But it was all a charade you put up, You behave all sweet and innocent infront of me, But inside thee are full of betrayal and evil, Now I am an unbeliever in love, Thankyou for waking me up, Coz I can see I was lucky to walk away lonely, I am deaf to the...
